method
- Step 1 :In a food processor blend base cashews & coconut into a flour consistency.
- Step 2 :Mix in coconut nectar & coconut oil very well until it looks like wet sand. If not add a touch more coconut oil.
- Step 3 :Evenly press into the base of a tin (15 x 25cm) lined with baking paper.
- Step 4 :Pop into the freezer while you make the caramel.
- Step 5 :In a food processor blend together all ingredients except the roasted peanuts.
- Step 6 :When you have smooth consistency spread over your base.
- Step 7 :Sprinkle with peanuts and push into the caramel & Smooth the top.
- Step 8 :Place into the freezer for a few hours or overnight.
- Step 9 :For the chocolate - In a bain-marie melt your cacao butter.
- Step 10 :Then stir in cacao powder & coconut nectar.
- Step 11 :Cut your snickers into bars & dip into chocolate.
- Step 12 :You will need to work quickly as the bars are cold & will cool down the chocolate.
- Step 13 :I coated one side allowed the chocolate to harden, then coated the other side.
Store in the fridge or freezer.
- Step 14 :If you are short on time you can also coat the snickers bars in melted Loving Earth Dark Chocolate.
I used coconut nectar, but any liquid sweetener should work, like maple syrup or rice malt syrup.
If you don't have medjool dates try soaking them in warm water before blending.
